ok in the manual it talks about the various action buttons and what they are used for, now in the manual it says you are supposed to have a fight, magic, steal, talk, use/give, carry, SPECIAL ability , and map.
the special ability button is suposed to be between carry and map, BUT I have a button that says Dragon Fire. It does nothing when I click on it.
How am I supposed to use my chars special abilities? and does anyone else have a dragon fire instead of special ability button?

I looked at my box to see if perhaps I have a different version but it doesn't mention what version it is, I'm in the usa so its not some wierd foriegn version...

It's an odd thing. That button is only active if you *have* a special ability. I don't know why the Dragon Fire is there as a default button.

Originally, when you could split your party and have a 3rd person camera that button was a group toggle of sorts. (check out the older screenshots like http://darkslayers.com/deep6/shots/rpg08.html Trivia: notice the map key toggle was originally the 1st / 3rd person camera toggle)

The special ability button was a pop-up that looked something like the spell wheel (if I recall right).

When Activision didn't want to test the multiplayer and whatnot, that original button was removed and something had to fill the space, so I suppose the Dragon Fire was thrown in there.

Don't worry, you're not doing anything wrong -- your character(s) just doesn't have the ability(s) right now to use that feature. (like fly or vampire bite)

btw, sign the petition, if you haven't!

Some things like Nightvision are "always on". Other things require activation. I don't have War Cry, so I don't know what's required

I haven't had a heap of time to peel apart the various layers of the final release. Been busy working on another game, but I do want to see how the levels finally turned out!
